build problems

Greetings;

Couple of things on an x86 (athlon) FC2 system.  Dl'd, and md5sums'd the
downloads, then unpacked all 7 files, made a /usr/src/buildx6.8 dir,
cd'd to it and did the lndir ../xc thing.  Re-read the docs and
could see that there wasn't anything I could do, so I started the
make World as shown in the BUILD doc.

The make World exited in just a couple of minutes with this:
In file included from utils.c:36:

Then I tried a 'cvs up -dP', which has worked lots of times
with other large projects like kde, and got this:

[root at coyote buildx6.8]# cvs up -dP
cvs update: No CVSROOT specified!  Please use the `-d' option
cvs [update aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.
[root at coyote buildx6.8]# 

So what do I put in the -d"argument"?
